NTEP SCALE CERTIFICATION

Scale Certification 

When operating a business that involves selling products across a scale, it is crucial to use an NTEP-certified scale. For those new to the scale market, it's vital to understand that NTEP certification is mandatory. However, it's important to be cautious when purchasing a scale, as not all scales on the market have this important certification.

​

What is NTEP certification?

​

NTEP certification is awarded by the National Type Evaluation Program (NTEP) Committee of the National Conference on Weights and Measures. The standards used for certification, with guidance from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), cover every aspect of a scale's use, including capacity, accuracy, and the effects of temperature fluctuations on its operations.​

​​

At Lambert Brown Scales, we understand the importance of the NTEP scale certification process. Our team, with its expertise and experience, is here to guide you through this process. We start by helping you select a scale that meets the certification requirements and continue to support you with the ongoing maintenance necessary to keep it certified.

 

Buying From a Top Tier Distributor

 

When purchasing an NTEP-certified scale, it's crucial to choose a reputable scale distributor. This professional provider should have access to inventory from some of the top manufacturers in the industry, such as Avery Weigh-Tronix and Rice Lake Weighing Systems. A reliable distributor can help you make the right connection and ensure you get a scale from a trusted manufacturer.


At Lambert Brown Scales, our team exclusively offers scales from these top manufacturers. We are authorized to sell these scales in Oklahoma as a licensed scale distributor with the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Food, and Forestry Weights and Measures Department. When you purchase from us, you can be confident that you are buying from a reputable source with an excellent selection of scales.

 

Addressing Repair Needs

​

You need to go beyond the initial NTEP scale certification and purchasing process. It comes down to addressing scale repair, service, and inspection needs as time passes. Your scales must be inspected periodically to meet or exceed all relevant attributes to maintain the certification. As you go through this process, repair needs may also come up. Our team at Lambert Brown Scales can assist with scale repair, servicing, and inspections. We can work with you to ensure your scales receive the initial certification and are serviced over time to maintain that certification.
